ALASKAN FACTS.

Governor swfneford's Annual Report
Relative to his Domain.
Gov. swine ord, OF ALASKA, IN his an
nual report; says that the white popaia-
tion is principally confined to the south.
eastern section, embracing the So called
thirty mile "trip" of mainland, which
inolndes less than one-twentieth OF the
whole territory. The governor says
that $40 Zoo 600 is q conservative esti-
mate OF the yeiue OF the taxable prop
erty in the territory, exclusive of the
Alaska Commercial eompany's esta5-
iishments on the Seal Islands. The In
crease. he say5, will be rapid as soon as
congress, by the necessary legislation,
gives encouragement to the settlement
of the public lands. The
report says that very little has
been accomplished or indeed attempted
IN the way OF agricultural developments.
This Is true, Notwithstanding there ia o
very considerable acreage OF tlllable lard
In southeastern Alaska, with soil that
produces the most luxurious vegetation.
the TACT being that no one m into
the territory with o belief that either the
soil or climate is adapted to agricultural
or horticultural pursuits, but the few
experiments which have been made
leave no room for doubt thai all cereals,
except corn, can be grown TO perfection
in many sections. Nothing has yet been
done IN they way of s~tock-rRising al
though the winters Of southeastern
Alaska are much miider than those of
Montana, Wyoming AND Dskota, and
the seasons altogether quite well adapted
to this industry.
The governor says that wonderful re-
suits are being achieved in mining,
showing the territory to be rich in pre-
cious metals. The salmon, cod and
whale fisheries, he says, yielded about
S3 100000 during the year.
Considerable space in the report Is de.
voted to the doings Of the Alaska com.
mesciai company, which holds a lease
from the government for fur privileges
Of the Seal islands. The governor de-
clares that the company does not contine
